This newly refurbished two-bedroom garden apartment occupies the ground floor of an elegant Victorian building opposite Crystal Palace Park. The flat benefits from a private entrance, solid oak kitchen with integrated appliances, upgraded heating and electrical systems, and direct access to a landscaped private rear garden — offering a peaceful retreat with generous natural light and high ceilings in principal rooms.
Practical ownership is straightforward: share of freehold, an exceptionally long lease (986 years) and no onward chain. Annual costs are clear — service charge around £1,200 and a small ground rent of £50 — while council tax sits at a low band B. The apartment’s size (approx. 621 sq ft) suits first-time buyers, couples or buy-to-let investors seeking a ready-to-move-in property in a sought-after location.
Location is a genuine strength: opposite the lower lake of Crystal Palace Park and close to Penge East/West and Crystal Palace stations, with excellent mobile and fast broadband connectivity. Local amenities and well-rated schools are nearby, though the immediate area records above-average crime and higher area deprivation statistics — factors to weigh for families or those prioritising very low-crime neighbourhoods.
Overall, this is a stylish, low-maintenance home with period character and modern finishes, offering immediate occupation and good long-term tenure security. Buyers should note the communal service charge and local area crime levels when assessing suitability.
